Haven't seen the movie but it reminds me too much of REAL LIFE Karens.

Look at that typical arrogant spoiled White girl glare....lol

Yes, this does seem like an intriguing plot!

I think that if this is anything like that Chuckie doll, it will be a great suspense thriller.

I wonder why though, she made the doll look White and not ethnic?

 

@Chevdove

If you were in the creative control situation, you would had said for the doll to be non white european looking?

Okay, @richardmurray, I may not have read with clear understanding and also, I read the article a few days before I posted so, I may need to go back and read it again. 

Anyway, I thought the creator of this theme was the author of Beloved?

So on that assumption, I thought this was to be an ethnic theme whereby the young girl was given 'a doll' that, in her mind replaced her mother, since the new 'mother' was absent. Therefore, I was thinking that the doll should be more like 'an ethnic image' of the girl and the culture. 

And yes, if I had creative control, I think it would be kind of intriguing to have a sort of 'Cruella Deville' Diva like ethnic doll character and build her to where, she could evoke a kind of 'love-hate' emotion from the readers! LOL! 

 

And then if it went to film, actresses like Jaque' or Jasmine Guy could probably really bring life to that kind of character.

jasmine guy voicing a cruella deville-esque ethnic doll terrorizing some girl/family.. part of me want to see that film made, not for financial profit, but the art attempt:) 

Jasmine Guy using her "Whitley" voice and accent....lol
